Re: Solder Paste Height

On a related note, I'm wondering if any of the newer devices have any way to factor in paste not releasing from the corners, or for that matter, radiused, oval, or round apertures. We have an LSMII, and all it does it let you draw a rectangle around

Is more epoxy better?

Electronics Forum | Wed May 30 17:59:16 EDT 2001 | jollyrodger

It may be the case (if you are using stencils to apply the epoxy) that you will have to indeed use a stepped stencil to appply the epoxy at a greater height. Not being an engineer i am not completely clear with the involvements of stencil design -

3D Vision vs 2D vision

Electronics Forum | Thu Jul 19 09:56:52 EDT 2001 | Damian Holzmann

The obvious difference between 2D and 3D is that an accurate volumetric measurement can only be obtained with a 3D measuring system. Laser line measurement in 2D does not allow accurate volumetric measurement. If you modify the aperture in a stencil

caps moving from pads

It's quite a big cap so try taping over about 25% of both apertures to restrict the volume of paste printed then see what happens. Also, is anything interfering with the part during placement? or are you 100% sure it's going into the oven ok? if no

Included screenshots from DEK manual, outlining stencil depth adjustment. Basically, distance from rear of the stencil to the front of the image is value needed to be set on scale when positioning stencil. There is an other way to adjust stencil, by

Adhesive printing

Printing with adhesives is no big deal so don't let the sales types try to mystify the process and convince you that they have the only stencils/adhesives/knowledge that can possibly get you through this "trying time" - at a price. Start with 0.010"

SPC on SMT

Some comments on the previous post: Be careful when looking at the proportion of SMT defects that are solder defects - you may very well find that only a small few of them originate at the screen printing step. As for specification limits for pas

You can achieve a wide range of dot heights when stencil printing by using a polyimide stencil along with a .040 snapoff. Loctite has a system for this that they call Varidot, by varying the size of the apertures in combination with the .040 snapoff

This is what I might do, I would purchase either a solder volume (preferred) or at the least a paste height measurement piece of equipmment, The most important parameters with pronting are volume and registration. You need one of these inspection
